The partnership allows Ortho Technology through its new practice loyalty program, OrthoRewards, to offer Orthodontists the option to convert OrthoRewards’ points to a charitable donation for the AAOF. Ortho Technology will donate the dollar value of the points to the AAOF in the name of the contributing orthodontist, and the Orthodontists will be credited with this amount towards their Foundation pledge. (100% of the donation will go to the AAOF.)

Robert Hazel, Executive Vice President of the AAOF noted, “We are grateful to them for thinking of us in this regard.” Paul Wilkens, Vice President of Marketing for Ortho Technology said, “We’re excited to be able to offer Orthodontists an easy way to make donations to the AAOF through OrthoRewards.”

Ortho Technology’s OrthoRewards practice loyalty program is a point-earning system where our Orthodontists earn points for incremental amounts of purchases. Currently the OrthoRewards program offers three options to redeem points for Instant Gifts, Gift Certificates, or Ortho Technology Supply Rebates. In providing this fourth option, Ortho Technology has created an opportunity for our doctors to make a charitable donation to the AAOF simply by earning OrthoRewards points through their normal monthly supply purchases. “We hope that when the Orthodontist makes their purchasing decisions for supplies that they keep in mind the fact that when they choose Ortho Technology that they’ll also be able to make a charitable donation to the AAOF with the points they earn.”
